Roopesh Keereeyat, a young mechanical engineer from Vatakara in the Malabar region of Kerala has mastered the art of creating Dinky models of combat aircraft and even naval ships of several countries. Roopesh has been creating these models for the past 13 years using paper, plastic, rubber and odd waste materials. The urge to make such Dinky aircraft and warships took shape when he could not fulfill his desire to become a pilot in the Indian Air Force.
